FROM Apr 1, firms can get support for up to 70 per cent of qualifying costs of energy-efficient technologies such as lighting, air-conditioning, boilers and air compressors, up from the current cap of 50 per cent, under the National Environment Agency's (NEA) Energy Efficiency Fund (E2F).

This will "help the manufacturing sector mitigate the impact of higher carbon tax", said Grace Fu, Minister for Sustainability and the Environment, in Parliament on Tuesday (Mar 8), in a joint segment on the Singapore Green Plan 2030.
